UFAW 2023 Animal Welfare Student Scholarships for Undergraduate and Masters Students

Published: 16 Jan 2023 1,361 views

The Animal Welfare Student Scholarships enable students to develop their interests in animal welfare science.

Students are encouraged to carry out their own projects (whether research or educational) with the aim of contributing to the growing knowledge of how best to assess, or improve, the welfare of animals – be they farm animals, animals in zoos, pets, animals used in scientific research, or those with which we interact in the wild.

Projects may be carried out anywhere in the world. If the location of the study is not at the university or institute where the student is enrolled, confirmation is needed from the study host.
